FAYETTEVILLE, AR (KAIT) -

Bobby Portis announced on Twitter that he will forego his final two years of eligibility to enter the NBA Draft.

"Unbelievable experience for me at the University of Arkansas these past two years. The love I have for this program is unconditional but I've decided to forego my junior year of college to take that next step and enter the NBA Draft. Special thanks to God, my family, the coaching staff, the athletic department, the education faculty, my teammates, Jeff Long, and the fans. Without all of you none of this is possible, " Portis wrote on Twitter.

Portis was the SEC Player of the Year in 2014 and an AP Second Team All-American. He lead the Razorbacks with 17.5 points per game and 8.9 rebounds.
